This is my card for Merla's challenge MAR16VSNL brand new. I bought this bird stamp several months ago, and it was in need of inking. I colored the bird with watercolor pencils. I made a horizontal decorative corner card. I think I really like this better than the vertical format for this technique. The flowers were colored with markers, huffed & stamped.

I like the idea of a horizontal corner card! It's funny how a little change can affect how much we like a fold, I way prefer the A2 pop-up book card to the square one. I just LOVE your musical bird, one of my favourite combinations of elements. And the colouring is so soft and pretty, with the pop of yellow for the beak looking just wonderful.

So lovely! The colors are so soft and soothing. I like how the sentiment also has the bit of color around the edges. I hope you had fun using your new stamp.
